Make-up Art Cosmetics, or M.A.C for short, was created in 1985 by
Frank Toskan and Frank Angelo in Toronto, Canada. At that time
Frank Toskan was a hair stylist, make-up artist, and photographer.
Frank Angelo was the owner and president of a successful national
chain of hair salons. As a photographer, Frank Toskan was dissatisfied
with the cosmetics available in the market. He began to formulate his
own cosmetic products to fill the void he saw in the cosmetics
industry.
Make-up artists and their clients loved the products and began asking
for and using the cosmetic Frank formulated. Frank Toskan and Frank
Angelo successfully identified a need which was not met by other
cosmetic lines. " We believe our image is a result of our business
philosophies, product quality, informative service, visuals, and
most importantly, our talented staff." Frank Toskan.
